System Description: Overview: Notes

The audio unit has a built in CD player. Audio units with navigation are referred to as audio-navigation units. These units combine the audio system, the navigation system, and the CD/DVD player into one unit.

The audio unit acts as the processor for all audio functions. Select audio functions from the audio switch panel buttons or the audio remote switch (on the steering wheel). The audio display provides the current audio status.

The audio unit has a built-in EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory). This memory holds the audio presets (AM/FM radio frequency, sound settings, etc.) even when the battery is disconnected.

A security signal is daisy-chained between the audio and vehicle components for integration into the vehicle's security system.

There are two audio systems available for the Acura ZDX:

• With navigation, it includes surround sound with 10 speakers.
• Without navigation, it includes 8 speakers.
